First Steps - part 2 - the Races

There are 4 main Races in EVE Online. Each Race also has 3 Bloodlines and 3 starting professions for a total of 36 different selections. But Races are mostly cosmetic and do not give any special benefits. Any Capsuler of any race can cross train to fly ships of another race.
The only difference is the graphics of the starting rookie ship and the location.

Now that you are ready to play, make sure to do the Tutorials. Even if you are an experienced player it is highly beneficial to do the Tutorials because they give you some starting money and necessary Rookie Skill Books.
Did I mention that you need to do the Tutorials?

After you finish the basic Tutorials, you can start with the Basic Professions missions. Those are just a series of Advanced Tutorials and also give money (ISK) and Skill Books, Equipment, etc.. Do them all and in any order you want. You can even start several at the same time.
